In this episode, the Latvian Institute of International Affairs (LIIA) examines the authoritarian regime in Belarus, its impact on human rights, regional challenges, and global security. How does authoritarianism in Belarus affect human rights? What are the broader global implications of unchecked state violence and what is the role of the international community?

This week’s guests are Anaïs Marin, Associate Fellow at Chatham House and Former UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in Belarus (2018–2024), and Einars Semanis, Former Ambassador of Latvia to Belarus.

The discussion is moderated by Beāte Livdanska, Researcher at the Latvian Institute of International Affairs.
